Thanks for the feedback, I'll respond in kind-

First, you must have encountered a bug with the script not loading properly, because I made every effort to make the sound effects not stack on top of each other, and when you touch the piano, it mutes the background music for 5 seconds. It's supposed to, at any rate.

As for the progression, think about it- if you saw something (for example,

I preferred to make it so that it has a natural and realistic order of progression. The whole point was to make you backtrack and pay attention to everything, and feel kind of like you're actually trapped in an abandoned lodge, trying to solve the puzzles of a dead madman, all the while escaping death. I know the dogs aren't scary, I wasn't trying to scare people. I was trying to keep them on the edge of their toes. The real nature of the mod is in the story, not the monster design.

Streetboat is right, first I was thinking like a Amn it's hard to progress sometimes, but this time it's really unique how Streetboat make those puzzles and you seriously have to think a lot when recorder rolls and tells you little hints. Yes, I first hated why afterwards some objects can be move and items appears after listening that tape. That's the point here, make player really think where next tape will be. That's what makes this mod so unique and special, yeah I have to say dogs was too annoying at times and I want to kill myself couple times to make them disappear. Piano puzzle was a little complicated, but it takes to time remember notes and you have to listen that many times to get that puzzle.
